I try to remember the good things about the person if I knew them.  I also am reminded about one of the cruelest parts of this business, that we are not allowed to grieve in public for those we cared for.

Whether it's an ATF or a fellow we drank beers with it is often impossible to go to a funeral we wish we could go to.  The ATF or favorite client must deal with their grief without the support structure society has for others.  Some don't need it, but many do.

In those cases we here become each other's grief companions.

I drink to him, and to you, Juliet.  May all who knew him find their peace.

I am not sure how many of you hobbyists and providers knew Dickus but he was an incredible human being and a wonderful gentleman.  He has been suffering from cancer this last year and sadly passed away last night.

It was my great joy to be able to give him love and kindness prior to his passing and I am incredibly grateful to have been on his bucket list and given the opportunity to connect with such a great guy.

Please raise your glass to Dickus tonight and remember him in your thoughts and prayers

This is the fourth or fifth in the five + years that I've been following this board.

God speed Dickus.

May you find some when you arrive.

Thanks Juliet. I remember chatting with him on line and always enjoyed his posts as well. Prayers go out to his friends and family.

were there for him...and You were there to give him the Love and Kindness that everyone deserves..I am Sure You made his Life more Peaceful and Pleasant...which I am sure helped him prepare himself for his New Journey...my glass has been raised :)

To make this post he must've been a nice guy, cancer is a sad thing, well RIP to him (never met him though) at least that fight is over.

Thank you so much for posting this. I used to talk to Dicky alot via PM and emails. He was a very special man, and a very special friend. I knew his time was running out, but he fought the good fight right up to the end. I will miss him very much.

That's what I called him when we used to chat it up. Just heard from him a week ago....Very sad.
Thanks for posting this.
